PV Sindhu wins Japan Open Super 750

PV Sindhu, a two-time Olympic medallist, won the Japan Open Super 750 title by beating Akane Yamaguchi in straight games.

This was Sindhu's first title in 19 months and her biggest since the World Championships in 2019.

She played exceptionally well, using precise net play and powerful smashes to control the match.

Yamaguchi, a three-time world champion, could not counter Sindhu's strategy effectively.

Sindhu expressed her happiness and gratitude to her support team after the victory.

Sindhu became the first Indian to win the Japan Open, ending a title drought of more than two years.

She was in complete command, mixing powerful smashes with precise net play and consistently found solutions whenever Yamaguchi attempted to shift momentum.
